Designing of Output Subsystems of Printing Plates in Computer Publishing

Polygraph enterprises have recently been intensively implementing in publishing and polygraph production new computerized technology of production of printing plates (forms) technology computertoplate (CtP). It is an automatic output files from computer to printing plates in devices that are called recorders CTP. They are the main devices of output subsystems of printing plates. Output subsystems of printing plates (forms) is terminal subsystem of computer publishing systems. Introduction of technology CTP requires large investments. For this reason, users are paying much attention to the selection of recorders CtP and output subsystems of printing plates. This article proposes a new method of designing of output subsystems of printing plates based on scientificallybased criterions of efficiency for recorders CtP and output subsystems as a whole, which considerably increases the validity of the design decisions.
